I had one where the cd kept jamming. One good thump on the top used to sort it out beautifully.

When dealing with electrical components, it's really amazing how a swift slap fixes problems. A worthy remedy for a stroppy washing machine or a stubborn PC.

While we're on the subject of machines, I think I have a "connection" with my server. Whenever there is a problem, even if I'm not online, I "feel" it....

OoooOOOooOOOoooOOOoo :P

Well,then count me too,because I sometimes feel my computer knows whenever I'm sad,or happy,by the way it works. And I have this obcession with the little noises it makes.My first day ever with it,and I called HP because it was making noises that looked like a" sick little kitten":eek:! I'm positive the person who supported me thought I was completely crazy!

That's what I used to do with my old computer. All of my electronic stuff get kicked around, my portable cd player is beggining to get a few hits with my knee, like I also do with all of my remote controls :D anger management lol

Evening Justin.

Used to work well with old fashioned TV's too. One good thump used to sort out the colour guns.

How could I loose that scene :hea:??!!

I've to admit I like my computer ,and machines in general,too much for beating them;I've this belief I've a strange connection with them,so I like loosing my time looking at them,finding what's wrong,pulling plugs,making experiences,etc.With my computer,I just panic,lol!

Then if you had my computer Pipolinne you would think it's posessed :X the sound is coming out weird, I can even listen to music, it sounds like Linda Blair from The Exorcist talking through my computer lol

When I'm on my computer I have my headphones on and I can hear noise.
Every time I do something on it it makes a specific type of noise,so by the way it sounds on my headphones I can hear exactly what's he doing.It's kinnda like he's talking to me.I can work on my computer with my eyes closed.
Good for taking a break when it's loading or something so you don't have to look every few seconds if it's finished.
